Answer:

Because the two genes depend on each other, it is possible for someone to actually be a carrier of a dominant trait like brown eyes. And if two blue eyed parents are carriers, then they can have a brown eyed child. Genetics is much bkj

Step-by-step explanation:

So all you light eyed parents with dark eyed kids, stop asking those paternity questions (unless you have other reasons to be suspicious). Darker eyed kids are a real possibility that can now be explained with real genes.
